you know you're right, but here in the SF bay area, to be more specific the East bay, street racing late night is a real big event.
on friday and saturday nights, sometimes wednesday nights, about 150+ cars show up to race each other.
There is a danger factor, but these racers all race in an area thats away from the city, mainly in areas with no pedestrians around. Still theres risk in racing like this, But these events have been around for years. I don't know how streetracing is in texas, I'm sure there are streetracing events over there like there is here.

It is dangerous, But to some people, tahts part of the reason for going out there and racing. For the thrill.
